Technical Field

[0001] This application belongs to the field of electronic technology, specifically relating to an electronic device. Background Technology

[0002] In related technologies, many electronic devices integrate functional components such as cameras and speakers into the same area on the motherboard. As electronic devices continue to become thinner and lighter, the space on the motherboard is constantly decreasing, which limits the size of the speaker and the volume of the sound cavity inside the speaker used for sound wave resonance.

[0003] For some loudspeakers, at the same input power, a smaller speaker cavity volume will weaken the loudspeaker's electroacoustic effect, thereby affecting the audio performance of electronic devices. Summary of the Invention

[0023] The following is combined with Figures 1-7 An electronic device according to an embodiment of the present invention is described.

[0024] An electronic device according to some embodiments of the present invention includes: a speaker enclosure 1 having an accommodating space having a first opening 111; a camera 2 at least partially located within the accommodating space and blocking the first opening 111; and a speaker 5 disposed within the accommodating space. The speaker enclosure 1, the speaker 5, and the camera 2 together form a sound-emitting cavity 3.

[0025] In the electronic device provided in this embodiment, the speaker 5 and the camera 2 are integrated in the speaker enclosure 1 to form an integrated structure. The speaker enclosure 1 is set on the motherboard 6 below the cover plate 71 of the electronic device. The speaker enclosure 1 is set in the space between the motherboard 6, the camera 2 and the cover plate 71. The speaker enclosure 1 is hollow inside to form a sound cavity 3, which can expand the volume of the sound cavity 3 within the limited thickness space of the whole machine.

[0026] The camera 2 and the speaker enclosure 1 are integrated and installed as a whole. The speaker enclosure 1 has a hollow accommodating space for housing the speaker 5. The sound emitted by the speaker 5 can resonate and propagate within this space. The camera 2 and the speaker 5 are arranged side by side in the accommodating space. It is understood that, unlike the separately installed speaker enclosure 1 in related technologies, the accommodating space inside the speaker enclosure 1 in this embodiment is not closed. The speaker enclosure 1 has a first opening 111, through which the accommodating space communicates with the outside. The lens of the camera 2, which is installed in the accommodating space, is exposed to the first opening 111, so that light can enter the lens and ensure that the camera 2 can work normally.

[0027] Meanwhile, the shape and size of the first opening 111 are adapted to the portion of the camera 2 that passes through the first opening 111, allowing the camera 2 to precisely block the first opening 111. The originally open accommodating space is sealed by the camera 2, forming a closed sound cavity 3. The first opening 111 also limits and fixes the camera 2. In practical applications, the speaker 5 is completely located within the accommodating space, and the sound waves it emits propagate and resonate within the sound cavity 3. The camera 2 can be completely located within the accommodating space or partially extended outside it. The position of the camera 2 and the specific shape of the speaker enclosure 1 are adjusted according to the actual design and layout of the entire device. The portion of the camera 2 that passes through the first opening 111 is typically the lens portion of the camera 2. The shape and size of the lens portion are consistent with the first opening 111, and it can be circular, square, polygonal, or other shapes. The camera 2 can be connected to the speaker enclosure 1 through various connection methods such as embedding, injection molding, bonding, and welding, and the gap between the outer peripheral surface of the camera 2 and the first opening 111 is sealed. The camera 2 and the speaker enclosure 1 can be assembled without gaps, thus forming a sealed sound cavity 3. The camera 2 and the speaker enclosure 1 directly constitute the boundary of the sound cavity 3. The entire accommodating space except for the camera 2 and the speaker 5 can be used to form the sound cavity 3, which is fully utilized for sound wave propagation and resonance.

[0028] In actual assembly, the electronic equipment is first assembled by mounting the camera 2 and speaker 5 into the speaker enclosure 1. The connection point between the camera 2 and the first opening 111 is sealed to ensure a stable connection of the camera 2 to the speaker enclosure 1, forming a sealed sound cavity 3 within the speaker enclosure 1, thus completing the integration of the speaker 5 and camera 2. Then, the speaker enclosure 1, integrating the speaker 5 and camera 2, is assembled onto the motherboard 6 and electrically connected to the corresponding electronic components on the motherboard 6.

[0029] In this embodiment, the camera 2 is directly integrated into the speaker enclosure 1. The camera 2 is limited and fixed by the first opening 111 on the speaker enclosure 1, eliminating the need for additional support structures such as brackets to support or avoid the camera 2. The camera 2 and the speaker enclosure 1 are directly assembled to form the sound cavity 3, and there is no need to set up a special sealing structure to seal the first opening 111. This greatly reduces the number of components in the entire speaker enclosure 1, freeing up some space around the camera 2, which can further increase the volume ratio of the sound cavity 3 and improve the utilization rate of internal space. Without affecting the overall thickness of the device, the space around the camera 2 is maximized to increase the volume of the sound cavity 3 in the speaker enclosure 1, improving the electroacoustic level and overall audio effect, while taking into account both the ultra-thin and lightweight experience and high-end audio-visual needs.

[0030] In addition, in some optional embodiments, the speaker enclosure 1 includes a first enclosure 11 and a second enclosure 12 arranged along the optical axis of the camera 2. The first enclosure 11 and the second enclosure 12 enclose a receiving space, and a first opening 111 is provided on the side of the first enclosure 11 opposite to the second enclosure 12.

[0031] The speaker enclosure 1 consists of a separable first enclosure 11 and a second enclosure 12. The first enclosure 11 and the second enclosure 12 are connected vertically and enclose a space to accommodate the camera 2 and the speaker 5. When assembling and disassembling the camera 2 and the speaker 5, the first enclosure 11 and the second enclosure 12 can be separated along the optical axis of the camera 2. The camera 2 and the speaker 5 are connected to one of the first enclosure 11 and the second enclosure 12, and then the first enclosure 11 and the second enclosure 12 are joined together to allow the speaker 5 and the camera 2 to be placed in the space. When assembling the speaker enclosure 1 into the electronic device, the first enclosure 11 is close to the cover plate 71, and the second enclosure 12 is close to the motherboard 6. The first enclosure 11 has a first opening 111, through which the lens of the camera 2 is exposed. The cover plate 71 has a hole corresponding to the first opening 111, allowing the camera 2 to be exposed to external light.

[0032] The first enclosure 11 and the second enclosure 12 can be connected by means of snap-fit ​​connection, bolt connection, ultrasonic welding, or adhesive bonding. Sealant can also be applied to the joint between the two enclosures to ensure overall airtightness after connection, preventing sound leakage from the speaker cavity 3 and affecting the sound output. The speaker 5 is mounted on the second enclosure 12 and can be fixed by snap-fit ​​or adhesive bonding. The speaker 5 is electrically connected to the main board 6 for signal transmission and power supply.

[0033] In some alternative embodiments, the camera 2 includes a first segment 21 and a second segment 22 connected together, the first segment 21 passing through the first opening 111, and the second segment 22 abutting against the speaker housing 1.

[0034] For a single-lens camera 2 that only frames the view outwards, the camera 2 can be configured to include a first segment 21 and a second segment 22 connected together. The outer diameter of the first segment 21 is smaller than the outer diameter of the second segment 22, and the outer diameter of the second segment 22 is larger than the diameter of the first opening 111. A shoulder structure that abuts against the speaker housing 1 is formed at the connection between the first segment 21 and the second segment 22, so that the second segment 22 can abut against the periphery of the first opening 111 without passing through the first opening 111.

[0035] The first segment 21 passes through the first opening 111, and the second segment 22 is located in the accommodating space and abuts against the inner side of the speaker housing 1 around the first opening 111. This enables the axial positioning of the camera 2. During assembly, the first segment 21 can be directly passed through the first opening 111 from inside the accommodating space to complete the positioning, making assembly more convenient.

[0036] Additionally, in some optional embodiments, a limiting member 4 is also included, which is disposed between the second segment 22 and the speaker enclosure 1.

[0037] The limiting component 4 can be made of annular foam or sealing ring, and is set at the position where the second segment 22 of the camera 2 abuts against the speaker enclosure 1 and is set around the edge of the second segment 22. The first enclosure 11 in the speaker enclosure 1 does not directly contact the camera 2, but is pressed against the shoulder of the camera 2 by the limiting component 4, thus limiting the camera 2 in the axial and circumferential directions.

[0038] The limiting component 4 has a certain degree of elasticity and plasticity, which can fill the tiny gap between the second section 22 and the speaker housing 1, further improving the sealing performance of the sound cavity 3 and preventing sound leakage from affecting the sound quality. On the other hand, the limiting component 4 enables flexible contact between the speaker housing 1 and the camera 2, which can buffer vibration and impact, isolate the vibration generated by the speaker 5 from the camera 2, prevent the camera 2 from shaking and making abnormal noises due to vibration, and reduce the impact of vibration on the shooting stability of the camera 2. When subjected to external impact, it can absorb kinetic energy, reduce the impact on the camera 2, protect the camera 2, and improve the overall user experience.

[0039] Furthermore, the speaker enclosure 1 has a limiting part 112, which is arranged around the first opening 111. A first segment 21 passes through the first opening 111, and the end of the second segment 22 near the first segment 21 abuts against the limiting part 112. The cross-sectional shape of the limiting part 112 is adapted to the cross-sectional shape of the camera 2, and the limiting member 4 is connected to the limiting part 112 to limit and fix the camera 2.

[0040] The limiting part 112 includes a first limiting part corresponding to the first segment 21 and a second limiting part corresponding to the second segment 22. The first limiting part and the second limiting part are respectively arranged around the first segment 21 and the second segment 22 of the camera 2. There is a first gap between the first limiting part and the first segment 21 of the camera 2, and there is a second gap between the second limiting part and the second segment 22 of the camera 2. This ensures that the first limiting part and the second limiting part do not directly contact the surface of the camera 2, providing a certain assembly redundancy when assembling the camera 2, and isolating the vibration generated by the speaker 5 from the camera 2.

[0041] The limiting member 4 is disposed between the first gap and the second gap, and is connected to the first limiting part and the second segment 22 of the camera 2 respectively, filling the gap between the limiting part and the outer periphery of the camera 2. The limiting member 4 and the camera 2 completely seal the first opening 111, forming a sealed sound cavity 3. At the same time, it positions the camera 2 to prevent the camera 2 from shaking or shifting inside the speaker enclosure 1.

[0042] In some alternative embodiments, the electronic device also includes a motherboard 6, a speaker enclosure 1 disposed on the motherboard 6, a first opening 111 located on the side of the speaker enclosure 1 away from the motherboard 6, and a speaker 5 and a camera 2 electrically connected to the motherboard 6 respectively.

[0043] like Figure 3 As shown, taking a smartphone as an example, the structure in this embodiment is used for the upper speaker 5 and the rear camera 2 of the smartphone. Along the thickness direction, the frame 7 of the electronic device includes a cover plate 71, a middle frame 73 and a screen 74 arranged sequentially. The cover plate 71, the middle frame 73 and the screen 74 enclose the rear cavity of the device. The motherboard 6 and the speaker enclosure 1 are arranged in the space of the rear cavity. Various structural components and electronic components such as brackets and sensors can also be arranged in the rear cavity of the device to make reasonable use of the internal space of the electronic device.

[0044] The speaker enclosure 1 is mounted on the motherboard 6. The speaker 5 and camera 2 inside the speaker enclosure 1 are electrically connected to the motherboard 6. Specifically, the camera 2 can be electrically connected to the motherboard 6 via a connector 26, which consists of a flexible circuit board and a board-to-board connector. The first opening 111 is located on the side of the speaker enclosure 1 facing away from the motherboard 6. A viewfinder is formed on the cover plate 71 corresponding to the position of the first opening 111. A decorative element 72 is also provided at the viewfinder, and a lens 27 is provided on the decorative element 72. The camera 2 passes through the first opening 111, located below the lens 27, and can view the scene through the viewfinder.

[0045] This electronic device integrates camera 2 directly into the space of the original speaker enclosure 1. After integrating camera 2 with speaker 5, the usable volume of the sound cavity 3 is increased while maintaining the overall slim and lightweight design, optimizing audio performance. This also does not negatively impact the camera 2's shooting function, simultaneously meeting users' needs for a slim body and a high-quality audio-visual experience. Furthermore, since camera 2 is directly mounted on speaker enclosure 1, the bracket on motherboard 6 used to mount camera 2 can be eliminated, allowing speaker enclosure 1 to be directly mounted on motherboard 6, further improving space utilization.

[0046] In this embodiment, by directly integrating the camera 2 into the speaker enclosure 1 and using the camera 2 as the sealing structure of the speaker enclosure 1, the unnecessary support and sealing structures around the camera 2 are eliminated. This simplifies the assembly process and frees up the space originally occupied by the support or sealing structures. The volume of the sound cavity 3 can be maximized within the limited internal space of the electronic device. Without affecting the overall thickness, the space around the rear camera is maximized, increasing the volume of the sound cavity 3 of the speaker enclosure 1, improving the upward electroacoustic level and overall audio effect, and meeting the user's dual needs for audio-visual experience and slim design.

[0047] This invention is applicable to all applications with an upper speaker, and the upper speaker is a fully enclosed cavity. The electronic device includes, but is not limited to, controllers, smart devices, terminal products, etc., wherein smart devices include, for example, smartphones, smart TVs, smart speakers, smart robots, smart wearable devices, VR devices, AR devices, XR devices, etc., and terminal products include personal computers, tablet computers, etc.

[0048] Example 1 refer to Figures 1-3 This document illustrates a schematic diagram of the specific structure of the electronic device in this embodiment. This application proposes an electronic device comprising: a speaker enclosure 1 having an accommodating space with a first opening 111; a camera 2, at least partially located within the accommodating space and blocking the first opening 111; a speaker 5 disposed within the accommodating space; the speaker enclosure 1, speaker 5, and camera 2 forming a sound-emitting cavity 3; the speaker enclosure 1 includes a first enclosure 11 and a second enclosure 12 disposed along the optical axis of the camera 2, the first enclosure 11 and the second enclosure 12 forming the accommodating space, and the first opening 111 being provided on the side of the first enclosure 11 facing away from the second enclosure 12; one end of the camera 2 being connected to the second enclosure 12, the other end of the camera 2 blocking the first opening 111, and the speaker 5 being connected to the second enclosure 12.

[0049] In this embodiment, the first housing 11 and the second housing 12 are joined together to form a receiving space with a top opening. The camera 2 is disposed in the receiving space, with only the lens portion of the camera 2 extending out of the receiving space through the first opening 111. Specifically, the camera 2 is positioned along the direction from the second housing 12 to the first housing 11. The base of the camera 2 is connected to the inner wall of the second housing 12, and the lens of the camera 2 passes through and seals the first opening 111. An adhesive layer can be provided on the bottom of the camera 2 to adhere it to the second housing 12.

[0050] In addition, in some optional embodiments, a connector 26 is also included, which is connected to the camera 2. The second housing 12 is provided with a clearance hole, the connector 26 passes through the clearance hole and extends out of the receiving space, and a sealing layer 25 is provided between the connector 26 and the clearance hole.

[0051] To achieve electrical connection between camera 2 and motherboard 6, camera 2 also includes connector 26, which mainly consists of a board-to-board connector and a flexible circuit board. The flexible circuit board is connected to the bottom of camera 2, and the other end of the flexible circuit board is connected to motherboard 6 through the board-to-board connector. A clearance hole is provided on the second housing 12, through which the flexible circuit board extends out of the receiving space, so that the board-to-board connector at the other end of the flexible circuit board is electrically connected to the motherboard 6 outside the receiving space. A sealing layer 25 is filled between connector 26 and clearance hole, which can be used for spot sealing to prevent leakage of the speaker cavity 3 and ensure the sealing performance of speaker cavity 3.

[0052] In this embodiment, when assembling the speaker enclosure 1, the camera 2 and the speaker 5 are first glued to the second enclosure 12. A limiting member 4 is placed on the shoulder of the camera 2. Then, the first opening 111 of the first enclosure 11 is aligned with the camera 2. The first enclosure 11 is pressed down to cover the second enclosure 12. The first enclosure 11 presses the camera 2 tightly through the limiting member 4 and seals the first opening 111, thus forming a sealed sound cavity 3 and completing the integrated assembly of the speaker 5 and the camera 2.

[0053] Example 2 refer to Figures 4-7 This document illustrates a schematic diagram of the specific structure of the electronic device in this embodiment. The embodiment of this application proposes an electronic device comprising: a speaker enclosure 1 having an accommodating space with a first opening 111; a camera 2, at least partially located within the accommodating space and blocking the first opening 111; and a speaker 5 disposed within the accommodating space. The speaker enclosure 1, speaker 5, and camera 2 together form a sound-emitting cavity 3. The speaker enclosure 1 includes a first enclosure 11 and a second enclosure 12 disposed along the optical axis of the camera 2. The first enclosure 11 and the second enclosure 12 together form the accommodating space. The first enclosure 11 has a first opening 111 on its side facing away from the second enclosure 12. The second enclosure 12 has a second opening 121. The first opening 111 and the second opening 121 are opposite each other. One end of the camera 2 blocks the first opening 111, and the other end of the camera 2 blocks the second opening 121.

[0054] In this embodiment, both the upper and lower surfaces of the accommodating space have openings. The camera 2 is inserted into the accommodating space along the optical axis of the camera 2 through the openings and connected to the speaker enclosure 1. The first enclosure 11 has a first opening 111, and the second enclosure 12 has a second opening 121. The first opening 111 and the second opening 121 are arranged opposite to each other, forming a through hole that penetrates the accommodating space, allowing the camera 2 to be inserted entirely into the speaker enclosure 1. One end of the camera 2 blocks the first opening 111, and the other end blocks the second opening 121. The camera 2 itself also blocks the openings on both sides of the speaker enclosure 1.

[0055] Understandably, the camera 2 includes a first segment 21 and a second segment 22. The size of the second segment 22 is larger than that of the first segment 21. The first segment 21 passes through the first opening 111, and the second segment 22 passes through the second opening 121. The size of the first opening 111 is adapted to the size of the first segment 21, and the size of the second opening 121 is adapted to the size of the second segment 22. This serves to position and limit the camera 2 so that after it enters the receiving space through the second opening 121, it can continue to move until the first segment 21 passes through the first opening 111. The second segment 22 abuts against the limiting part 112 around the first opening 111 of the first housing 11, and will not pass through the first opening 111 and come out of the first opening 111.

[0056] In some alternative embodiments, the camera 2 is provided with a connecting part 23, which is connected to the side of the camera 2 away from the first housing 11. The connecting part 23 covers the second opening 121 and is located outside the accommodating space and abuts against the second housing 12.

[0057] Camera 2 is positioned at the first opening 111 by abutting its second section 22 against the inner wall of the first housing 11, and at the second opening 121 by abutting its connecting part 23 against the outer wall of the second housing 12. The camera 2 has a connecting part 23 at its bottom, specifically a skirt-like structure extending outwards from the bottom of the camera 2. The size of the connecting part 23 is larger than the size of the second opening 121, allowing it to engage with the second opening 121 without passing through it. When camera 2 is inserted into the receiving space through the second opening 121, the main body of camera 2 enters the receiving space, while the connecting part 23 is located outside the receiving space and abuts against the outer side of the second housing 12, thus axially limiting camera 2 and connecting it to the second housing 12. Simultaneously, the abutment of the connecting part 23 against the second housing 12 seals the second opening 121.

[0058] In some alternative embodiments, an adhesive layer 24 is provided between the connecting portion 23 and the second housing 12.

[0059] The camera 2 is connected to the speaker enclosure 1 at the second opening 121. The connecting part 23 at the bottom of the camera 2 has a large contact surface with the second enclosure 12. The connection is fixed and sealed by applying glue to form an adhesive layer 24, which improves the connection stability and sealing effect.

[0060] The camera 2 also includes a connector 26. One end of the connector 26 is connected to the connecting part 23, and the other end is used for electrical connection to the motherboard 6. The connector 26 includes a board-to-board connector and a flexible circuit board. For the electronic device in this embodiment, since the connecting part 23 of the camera 2 is located outside the accommodating space, the connector 26 can be directly connected to the connecting part 23 and then connected to the motherboard 6 below. (Reference) Figure 5 The connector 26 extends from the accommodating space along the upper surface of the connector 23 to the outside of the accommodating space. The position where the connector 26 contacts the second housing 12 can be sealed by spot inspection to ensure that the gap between the second opening 121 and the camera 2 is completely blocked, thus ensuring the sealing of the speaker cavity 3.

[0061] In this embodiment, during the assembly of the electronic device, the speaker 5 is first glued to the second housing 12. Then, the first opening 111 of the first housing 11 is aligned with the second opening 121 of the second housing 12, and the first housing 11 is connected to the second housing 12 to assemble a complete speaker housing 1. At this time, an accommodating space with upper and lower openings is formed inside the speaker housing 1. A limiting member 4 is set on the shoulder of the camera 2, and glue is applied to the connecting part 23 at the bottom of the camera 2. Then, the camera 2 is inserted into the accommodating space through the second opening 121 until the first segment 21 of the camera 2 penetrates the first opening 111. The second segment 22 of the camera 2 abuts against the inner wall of the first housing 11 through the limiting member 4, sealing the first opening 111. The connecting part 23 at the bottom of the camera 2 abuts against the outer wall of the second housing 12, thus forming a sealed sound cavity 3, completing the integrated assembly of the speaker 5 and the camera 2.
